Zechariah 4
1 And the angel who was talking to me came again, awaking me as a man out of his sleep.
Anjelu oyo azalaki kosolola na ngai azongaki mpe alamusaki ngai ndenge balamusaka moto oyo alali pongi.
2 And he said to me, What do you see? And I said, I see a light-support, made all of gold, with its cup on the top of it and seven lights on it; and there are seven pipes to every one of the lights which are on the top of it;
Atunaki ngai: — Ozali komona nini? Nazongiselaki ye: — Nazali komona etelemiselo moko ya mwinda, basala na wolo mpe, na likolo na yango, ezali na kopo moko, minda sambo mpe batio sambo oyo elekisaka mafuta kino na minda.
3 And two olive-trees by it, one on the right side of the cup and one on the left.
Ezali lisusu na banzete mibale ya olive pene ya etelemiselo ya minda: moko na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali, mpe mosusu na ngambo ya loboko ya mwasi.
4 And I made answer and said to the angel who was talking to me, What are these, my lord?
Natunaki Anjelu oyo azalaki kosolola na ngai: — Nyonso oyo elakisi nini, nkolo na ngai?
5 Then the angel who was talking to me, answering me, said, Have you no knowledge of what these are? And I said, No, my lord.
Azongiselaki ngai: — Boni, oyebi te soki elingi kolakisa nini? Nazongiselaki ye: — Te, nkolo na ngai!
6 This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel, saying, Not by force or by power, but by my spirit, says the Lord of armies.
Alobaki na ngai: — Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi na Zorobabeli: « Ezali na makasi to na nguya na yo te, kasi na nguya na Ngai, » elobi Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga.
7 Who are you, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel you will become level: and he will let all see the headstone, with cries of Grace, grace, to it.
Ozali nani, ngomba monene? Okokoma etando liboso ya Zorobabeli. Akobimisa libanga monene kati na yo, wana bato bakozala koganga na esengo: « Tika ete Nzambe apambola yango! Tika ete Nzambe apambola yango! »
8 Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
Bongo Yawe alobaki na ngai:
9 The hands of Zerubbabel have put the base of this house in place, and his hands will make it complete; and it will be clear to you that the Lord of armies has sent me to you.
— Ezali maboko ya Zorobabeli nde etongaki miboko ya Tempelo oyo; ezali mpe kaka maboko yango nde ekosilisa mosala ya kotonga yango. Boye bokoyeba solo ete Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, nde atindaki ngai epai na bino.
10 For who has had a poor opinion of the day of small things? for they will be glad when they see the weighted measuring-line in the hand of Zerubbabel. Then he said in answer to me, These seven lights are the eyes of the Lord which go quickly up and down through all the earth.
Nani atiolaki makambo mike ya ebandeli? Bato bakotonda na esengo tango bakomona, na maboko ya Zorobabeli, singa oyo bamekelaka molayi. Biloko wana sambo ezali nde miso ya Yawe oyo etalaka mokili mobimba.
11 And I made answer and said to him, What are these two olive-trees on the right side of the light-support and on the left?
Natunaki Anjelu: — Banzete mibale ya olive oyo ezali na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali mpe ya mwasi ya etelemiselo ya minda elakisi nini?
12 And answering a second time, I said to him, What are these two olive branches, through whose gold pipes the oil is drained out?
Natunaki ye lisusu: — Bitape mibale ya nzete ya olive, oyo ezali pembeni ya batio mibale ya wolo oyo ebimisaka mafuta oyo engalaka elakisi nini?
13 And he said in answer to me, Have you no knowledge what these are? And I said, No, my lord.
Azongiselaki ngai: — Boni, oyebi te soki elakisi nini? Nazongisaki: — Te, nkolo na ngai.
14 And he said, These are the two sons of oil, whose place is by the Lord of all the earth.
Boye, alobaki: — Ezali nde bato mibale oyo bapakolami mafuta mpo na kosalela Nkolo ya mokili mobimba.
